When you lose stuff during a big move.


Made in JAPAN Shnapps-O-Flex whiskey flask. A 70's/80's kid playing around grandma's house, I was always curious about it sitting up high on a retro bar shelf with other fancy and bizarre chachskies and nick knacks in the basement of grandma and grandpa's swank bar and wondering about the fact that it's a shiny camera that is sitting on display in a wet bar. I was a kid with curiosities. Inherited it 20 years ago and placed it in a box for safe keeping. Until last year after I made this epic decision to downsize and move. I told myself I would display this cool vintage item and all the cool sentimental stuff in the new apartment home! Stuff that meant something. Yeah!
I remember packing this guy with a shit ton of really good bubble. You know the kind that makes the cool popping sound and makes all your stress and anxiety go away. Which means it would be in a big box. I downsized from 3000 sq ft to 1000 sq ft and 6 months later I still haven't found the 'big' box. Well, it's either been donated or thrown away by an unfortunate accident. Maybe one day it'll turn up unexpectedly. Or not. Stuff. You can't take it with you. Nuff said.
